Bookmark this page out for the most up-to-date news on terrain closures, special events, flash sales, or anything else you might want to know before you visit ASCEND. Make the most of your time by being informed!

We do our best to keep impacts on our members and guests as limited as possible. That being said, sometimes we have to make the difficult decision to reserve terrain for programs, classes, and special events. Our commitment to you, is that we minimize those impacts and give you a heads up.

During the month of December, ASCEND Members can save at some local businesses! We've partnered up with as many local business buddies as we could to offer up some deals that will help you help them. Let's face it, times are tough and local businesses are feeling the strain, so consider giving them a boost this holiday season!
